We are excited to be back in Champaign, IL for our 2ndTech Cocktail Champaign Mixer event. While all of our events are unique thanks to any one city’s unique community mix of academia, established startups, investors, and mentors, Champaign’s startup scene sets itself apart thanks to its proximity to the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. In fact, a few of our showcased startups tonight are super-early stage – it is always fun to meet them when they’re young and then watch them evolve.
